The X100 LP should be appreciated as more of an experimental format rather
than a musical piece. The scratches that Brinkmann has etched on the original
acetate is calculatively done (mathematically) to stimulate a different
perception of sound depending on your orientation in a listening room. (I'm
not too sure what effect this might have through headphones) In a sense this
is indeed a psychoacoustical experiment and the record is more a mechanism
for sound exploration through the ears of the listener. If one also looks
into the grooves of the vinyl when it is played, there is some sort of
association between the light reflections on the record and the subtle beat
variations. Curious? Well that's Brinkmann for you!
